BACKGROUND To halt the increase in peanut allergy, we must determine how children become sensitized to peanut. High household peanut consumption used as an indirect marker of environmental peanut exposure is associated with the development of peanut allergy. OBJECTIVE We sought to validate a method to quantify environmental peanut exposure, to determine how peanut is transferred into the envi...

26 A glass house study was conducted to investigate the accumulation of arsenic in tissues of five 27 widely cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties of Bangladesh namely BRRI dhan 28, BRRI dhan 28 29, BRRI dhan 35, BRRI dhan 36, BRRI hybrid dhan 1. Arsenic concentrations were measured in 29 straw, husk and brown and polish rice grain to see the differential accumulation of arsenic among the...

BACKGROUND Plantago ovata husk therapy could be used in patients with Parkinson disease to reduce the symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders, but it is important to know whether this compound modifies levodopa pharmacokinetics. The maintenance of constant plasma concentrations of levodopa abolishes the clinical fluctuations in parkinsonian patients. The aim of this randomised clinical trial was...

PURPOSE Clinical features of peanut allergy can range from localized to systemic reactions. Because peanut and birch pollen have cross-reactivity, peanut can lead to localized allergic reaction in Fagales pollen-sensitized oral allergy syndrome (OAS) patients without peanut sensitization per se. The purpose of this study was to discriminate true peanut food allergy from cross-reactive hypersens...

the increasing cost of peanut production is a major concern in iran. therefore, developing the mechanization of peanut production is a necessity. in this regard, a three-phase delphi study was conducted to identify the promoting and deterring factors affecting peanut cultivation mechanization in guilan province, the main peanut-producing region in iran. after preliminary studies, 26 experts wer...

The building sectors are increasingly in need of more wood-based panels. Forests and environments being destroyed to produce these aim this study is protect forest assets by recycling peanut (Arachis hypogaea) husk manufacturing particleboard for green design. manufactured composite panels were subjected combustion formaldehyde tests. According the test results, reduced time increased temperatu...

Drought is a serious environmental stress limiting growth and productivity in peanut and other crops. Nutrient uptake of peanut is reduced under drought condition, which reduces yield. The objectives of this study were to investigate nutrient uptake of peanut genotypes in response to drought and to estimate the relationship between nutrient uptake and peanut yield under different water regi...

OBJECTIVE The objectives of the study were to assess the effect of cacao bean husk as bedding material in free-stall barn on the behavior, productivity, and udder health of dairy cattle, and on the ammonia concentrations in the barn. METHODS Four different stall surfaces (no bedding, cacao bean husk, sawdust, and chopped wheat straw) were each continuously tested for a period of 1 week to det...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether there are any differences between children who remain mildly or moderately allergic to peanut and children with similar histories but a negative reaction on challenge with peanut. DESIGN Case-controls matched for age and sex. SETTING Children's day wards in two teaching hospitals. INTERVENTION Open food challenge with peanut. SUBJECTS 15 children with res...
